Presence Over Performance

Some wedding photography can feel like a production. There are light stands, posing prompts, and a constant pressure to "look the part."

My approach is different. I believe the most beautiful version of your wedding is the one that actually happened, not a curated version staged for social media. I work to protect your space, ensuring you stay in the moment while I document the real story.

Minimal, Guided Movement

Predictive Observation

While you’re focused on your partner and your guests, I’m watching the room in multiple dimensions. I’m looking for the fleeting glances and the unscripted hugs. I’m already there when the moment lands, never chasing it after the fact.

Minimal, Guided Movement

When it is time for portraits, we don't "pose." We move. I’ll guide you through transitions and give you simple prompts that keep you feeling like yourself. It’s efficient, it’s relaxed, and it’s usually the moment my couples realize, "Oh, this is actually easy."

The Deliverables

Your story is delivered via a private, high-resolution digital gallery. It is clean, intuitive, and designed to be shared with the people who matter most.

Don't just take our word for it

Some kind words from 100+ even kinder couples
Brendan and his team of photographers & videographers made us feel so at ease and comfortable, playing music and chatting to us throughout, which shows in the beautiful photos we have received.

Your calm, friendly approach made everyone feel so comfortable. Thank you for capturing our emotions so honestly, your photos perfectly reflect each moment and cannot wait to share them with our family and friends for years to come!
Rach & Mitch

Brendan was amazing, believe all the 5 star reviews! He brought a laid back, professional approach to everything from initial conversations to the big day. He carries little nuggets of wisdom with him that helped us relax into the day and feel (and look) fabulous in front of the camera.

Your privacy is a luxury.

I understand that for many of my clients, privacy isn't a request, it's a standard. My workflow is strictly permission-based. Whether you are a high-profile professional or simply someone who values a private life, I respect your boundaries.

I will never assume that your photos belong on my social media or website. Before a single image is shared, I will ask for your explicit permission. You have every right to say no, and I honour that choice without question.

Common Questions

We’re here to guide you. If you have a specific question that isn't covered here, let’s chat through it during your consultation.
Will it be Brendan photographing our wedding?

Yes. When you book me for photography, you get me. I don’t use "associates" or send a stranger in my place. From our first conversation to the moment I walk into the room on your wedding day, I am the person behind the lens. This allows us to build the trust and calm that makes my documentary style possible.

How do you handle videography?

For the last seven years, I have built a tight-knit circle of videographers who share my philosophy: documentary-led, non-intrusive, and narrative-focused. If you book a film package, one of these trusted creatives will work alongside me. We operate as a single unit, ensuring the day feels seamless rather than a production with two separate crews competing for space.

What are the benefits of booking a photo and video package?

Consistency and calm. Because my video team and I work together regularly, we have a shorthand. We know how to move around each other, where the other needs to stand, and how to stay out of your way. It eliminates the friction that can happen when two different companies meet for the first time at your ceremony.

Do you travel for weddings?

While the Mornington Peninsula is my backyard, I follow my couples wherever the story takes them. From Byron Bay to international destinations, if you love my work, I'd love to hear from you.

How far in advance should we book?

To maintain the quality of my work and the level of service I provide, I only take on a limited number of weddings each year. For Saturdays during the peak season (October through March), 12 to 18 months is ideal. For weekday celebrations, 9 to 12 months usually suffices.

Can our film feel "fun" or "upbeat"?

Your wedding film should be a reflection of your personality, not a template I’ve used a hundred times before. Before the wedding, we’ll discuss the vibe and energy you want to capture. We film the truth of the day, if your wedding is a high-energy celebration, the film will reflect that. If it’s a quiet, intimate gathering, the film will feel like a slow exhale.

Ready for ME to capture your day?
